Lan 1 Lan 2 Question 2

I have a 406V2 here in the office. The IPO, VM are hosts on my network on the same subnet as all the other PC. Don't have and Vlans. Everything is in the same 10.0.0.0 range and the Mask is 255.255.255.0.

My IP phone is set to a staic IP address and I have gone in and set all the settings. When my IP phone is rebooted, it looks for HTTP and fails because I haven't set it and then it finds the TFTP server and grabs the 46xxsettings and the 46xxupgrade file and everything works great.

Now I'm setting up a 500 and trying to use Lan1 for the IPO and VMPro/Manager/TFTP server via Manager and Lan 2 for IP Phones. I have Lan 2 set for DHCP server and are having the IP phones get IPs from Lan2.

Here is the question: Why in this scenario is the TFTP timing out? The phone in the setup is comming up and working fine but I don't understand why TFTP is timing out. The display on the phone shows the correct TFTP address so it is getting it from the IPO but it times out. I have been told this is normal but I don't agree because my system isn't doing this.

I think it is routing between the Lans but I am not sure where I am making the mistake.

Your help is appreciated.
 
Maybe i'm wrong but isn't it better to use Lan1 for the IPPhones instead of Lan2, and way don't you let their DHCP server send the Option 176: "L2Q=1,L2QVLAN=XXX" (XXX is your Vlan ID).
I never do iprouting, if i have a VMPRO server a always use a 2nd Nic wich is programmed on the switch special for you Voice or Data VLan.

Wont say to much just yet, but what is people opinion on this.
Lan 2 for IP Phones is it a good thing or not recommended. In Ron's case this is fine but what about.

IP500 Lan1, SIP, TFTP, VM, Output to customers network.
Lan2 IP Phones X 65

I'm not understanding the comment but I don't see why in matters. You can set 176 option on both Lan ports.

I don't think my set up is a vlan. I putting the phones on one lan and the IPO on both and the VM on another. The cust has POE switches specific for the phones and each phone has its own cable. (TO me, this is a classice example of why go IP but who cares). I want it this way for access over the lan for maintenence and I want to keep the phones on another subnet.


 
Ah, that shines a light on it (maybe you mentioned it earlier but i am to lazy to read it all). Two physical separated LAN's, than you need a router.
I am not sure if IP Office can fulfill the needs as both LAN's have the same MAC Address, which makes it impossible for the network layer to addres each LAN seperatly.

Question;

Lan2 has a Firewall, Lan1 doesn't did you turn it off?
